From Problem to Solution

The default Firestore console leaves much to be desired. AppoBase fills every gap.

The Problem

Limited querying capabilities with no JavaScript support

No query history, execution logs, or replay functionality

Awkward navigation between collections and documents

Need to switch between pages for Database, Auth, and Storage

No support for editing GeoPoints or DocumentReferences visually

Clunky data export with no background progress tracking

Basic JSON viewer with no search or copy functionality

No multi-tab support and no named database selection per project

AppoBase's Solution

Powerful query builder with simple filters and JavaScript mode with Monaco Editor

Complete query history with execution logs, statistics, and one-click replay

Intuitive tree view with breadcrumbs, right-click to open in new tabs

Unified Database, Auth, and Storage in one multi-tab interface

Native GeoPoint and DocumentReference editing with round-trip conversion

Seamless import/export with background task tracking and progress

Advanced JSON viewer with search navigation, copy buttons, and line numbers

Multi-tab interface with multi-database support, drag-and-drop reordering, and isolated state

Match AppoBase to the Firebase console and other GUIs

AppoBase is a local Firestore GUI for macOS and Windows. The table lists features the desktop app ships today: four Storage views, query history with replay, and Auth beside documents. Public pages for the console, Firefoo, Firelize, FireCMS fill the other columns. A dash means that page does not list the surface.

Check means AppoBase or the other product lists that feature. A muted check is a weaker or split surface. A dash means the public page does not list it.

AppoBase ships for macOS and Windows. Firefoo's public site also lists Linux. Competitor cells are not a full audit of every docs page.

Keep billing in the console. Move daily Firestore, Auth, and Storage work to a local desktop GUI.

Edit Firestore on a Mac or Windows desktop

AppoBase is a desktop client for Cloud Firestore on macOS and Windows. AppoBase connects with a service account JSON file and keeps that key in the Electron main process. The Firebase console stays for billing and project settings. AppoBase handles documents, queries, Auth users, and Storage files in local tabs.

Replace the console for daily collection work

AppoBase replaces the Firebase console for browsing collections and running queries. Simple mode uses field suggestions and operators such as ==, !=, array-contains, and in. JavaScript mode uses the Monaco editor, with autocomplete and comment shortcuts. AppoBase stores query history per collection and replays a run with one click.

Read the Firebase console alternative page for a feature map. Desktop GUI comparisons live on the Firefoo and Firelize pages. FireCMS is a CMS framework, not a local client.

Open Auth users and Storage buckets beside documents

AppoBase opens Firebase Auth and Cloud Storage in the same window as Firestore. Auth supports custom claims. Storage uses four views: Folder, Tree, Grid, and Table. AppoBase generates signed URLs with a configurable expiry. GeoPoints and DocumentReferences round-trip on save.

Each project or named database can occupy its own tab. Tabs keep isolated state and reorder by drag and drop. File actions include upload, download, copy, move, and delete. Image files preview in the app when the type or extension is an image.

AppoBase ships for macOS and Windows, not Linux or mobile. Download AppoBase from the homepage. The Firestore GUI page names the same surfaces in more detail.
